<DIV>*National Preservation Institute Offers Two Seminars on
Cemetery<BR>Preservation*</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The National Preservation Institute is offering two seminars to be held
in Stafford, Virginia. The first seminar, "Cemetery Preservation" will be held
April 17-18, 2013, on initiating cemetery preservation and restoration
projects and ensuring sound choices are made. Discussions will focus on
current issues in cemetery preservation, such as recording and documenting
cemeteries, preservation efforts, and exploring conservation techniques and
issues. Instructors for this seminar are Michael Trinkley, Director, and Debi
Hacker, Conservation Administrator of Chicora Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit
heritage preservation organization specializing in research, public education,
conservation, and preservation for museums, archives, and historic
organizations.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hacker will also teach the second seminar, "Cemetery Landscapes: A
Practical Guide to Care and Maintenance," on April 19, 2013. The seminar
focuses on protecting historic cemetery landscapes, preserving the integrity
of design, and safeguarding tombstones and monuments, while pursuing a
practical outlook on maintenance and budget concerns. The seminar will explore
approaches to caring for softscapes, or plantings, and hardscapes, including
roads, pathways, and benches. Discussions will also focus on effective pruning
and cutting techniques, when chemicals and heavy equipment can be safely and
productively used, and the basics of short- and<BR>long- term preservation
plans.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Agendas are available online at <A
href="http://www.npi.org">www.npi.org</A>. These seminars meet the criteria
for programs in the American Society of Landscape Architects<BR>(ASLA)
Continuing Education System. ASLA members will receive 6 learning units each
day.<BR></DIV>
